Top 50 Gluten-Free Breakfast Spots to Delight in Fort Wayne

Jessica Goodwin

Food was great. Portion sizes were huge! It is a really cute place, with an Americana theme. The combos were also themed, like the Lincoln breakfast or Confederate burrito. Our server was polite, but a little pokey and never got a refill (sorry, pet peeve). However, the food itself came out fast. The pancakes are on the IHOP taste side, but bigger and delicious. The fried potatoes are real! Not that bagged stuff. Overall would eat here again if visiting. FYI, they also have a gluten free menu page included in the menu.

I’m a big fan of Proximo, especially after working with them to host my wedding reception in their private dining room. They were very accommodating, the food was stellar as always (with great vegetarian and gluten free options to accommodate all guests), and the cocktails and wine were perfect. Thank you Proximo!

It was super busy today and we had to wait in a little corridor for a table. Which sounds bad, but it wasnt really. We got a cute table and ate some delicious food 😊 The phyllo goodness was truly good 😉. My friend got the turkey bacon panini with gluten free bread and I got the chicken bacon foldover. Delicious. Definitely hits the spot for an early lunch. We had the blueberry lavender lemonade 🤌🏻 I love a good vibe and this place had it. Lots of plants and the staff are really friendly 😊

My gluten free cake turned out even more incredible than I could have imagined. I am seriously blown away by this cake. They did everything I asked for. Everyone was very kind and professional. I will 100% be buying my next cake from Courtney’s Bakery!

This place is amazing!! I love all the gluten free options. The gluten free bacon, egg and cheese bagel 🥯 was perfection. Their coffee is lovely.

My family came here to celebrate the end of the school year. One of the reasons we decided to try it was that my wife has Celiac disease and can only eat at restaurants that do a good job with gluten free items and cross contamination. The person who took our order put an allergy alert on our order, and they got her food first and brought it out separately from the rest of our order. Beyond that, our kids loved everything about their experience here, especially the food. My son had fun trying all the different sauces (and telling us which ones he thought would pair best with various menu items), and they all liked the decor and atmosphere. Good BBQ, good atmosphere, and excellent service means that we will definitely visit again!

One of our favorite spots-the coffee is so good and there are so many options for Gluten free / dairy free. Jordan, the manager, was great to work with for a recent collaborative event! They have renovated their shop and are also offering more catering options---highly recommend!

Jennifer Nolen

5 stars all around. Super cute, unique cafe. Espresso based drinks, teas, smoothies, and quick bites. Gluten free items available. Great location, dedicated parking, indoor and outdoor seating. Very kid friendly.

Miranda Gust

They are always so welcoming and have the system down to get you food as fast as possible! The gluten free buns were not the best but besides that all the food is great!

Amanda Grimwood

I absolutely LOVE this coffee house. The owner is so friendly and has made each experience very personable. She remembers my name, what i order and makes recommendations on what she thinks I will like, remembers where I work and asks me about it. I love the morning crowd that is in here whenever I come in. They always put a smile on my face. I love the variety of local vendors that sell there items. There are so many different interesting things to choose from. I love that when I come buy here I am not only supporting local but also supporting a small local owned business that also supports local artists. Not to mention the garlic chicken salad sandwich that is amazing! While I am not a vegan or look for gluten free options this shop supplies so many options. My daughters love visiting this shop with me on Saturdays or when we all happen to have a day off. If you get an opportunity definitely check them out. You will leave with a smile on your face!

Natalie Jones

What a great place for an informal meeting! I love all the food options, vegetarian and gluten free. Drinks are GREAT!! Staff is informed and nice too.

Sandra Monnier

When I found out that there was a gluten free option, I was very excited. However, my excitement ended in disappointment when the gluten free donuts ended up being nothing more than a store bought brand covered in different glazes. For the cost of the gluten free donuts, at over $3 per donut, I was expecting more than something I can make myself at home.

Kelly Rowe

Gluten free French toast!

Paige Hovious

I ordered carry out from here last night. I asked if they had gluten free buns which I was told they did, only to get my burger on literal toast? It was odd. It also was not cooked enough and I ate maybe 1/3 of it before having to throw it away. I wasn’t asked how I wanted it cooked, but being a burger I would assume they would cook it atleast medium well. The fries were not seasoned and for a $21 burger/fries it was extremely disappointing. I also got brussel sprouts which were average, better than the burger. Overall, spending $33 before tip was way too much for the qualify of food I got and the taste.

Laurie J krotz

Awesome place! Most of the items are gluten free!

Allie Previt

I’m from Cleveland here on a business trip & this place is sooooooo good. I’m Italian/Sicilian & very picky about authentic Italian food & this place is the real deal. The sauce/gravy was perfectly flavorful (nothing sucks more than sauce that’s too sweet with no flavor). Also, I’m gluten free (I know, what kind of Italian is GF) and the pasta was delicious. Kudos to them, I would come back to Fort Wayne again for this place. We had the wedding soup, baked ziti, spaghetti supreme, and the shrimp scampi app. Yum.

Erin Martin

Delicious and a great variety! The gluten free bagel is a favorite of mine and I love that it's even an option they have.

John Staley

Large portions. Good food. Gluten free menu

Casey Ross

I live an hour away and will definitely be back! They have gluten free bread!

Ann Walters

Always amazing. Love their gluten free donuts!

I absolutely LOVED my experience with Icing For Izaac! I ordered a gluten-free, goose-themed vanilla and raspberry cake, and they truly went above and beyond to accommodate my dietary needs. I’ve been dealing with histamine intolerance, and while I know it’s nearly impossible to create a completely histamine-free cake, they did an amazing job informing themselves about my restrictions. They carefully chose ingredients and even froze the cake throughout the process to minimize histamine development. Not only was the cake stunning, but it was also incredibly delicious! It made my birthday extra special, despite the dietary challenges. Everyone enjoyed it—my dad even tried a slice of their cheesecake and said it was ‘fire’ 🔥! I’m so grateful for the care and effort they put into this order. Thank you so much!

The Hive is very cute inside and has a gorgeous patio! It’s a great place to sit and chat. The gluten free baked goods of Wild & Free are sold within Hive, and they had a nice selection of muffins and scones. The cake pop was good too.

Kathy Kearns

A simple bakery with friendly staff and really delicious treats. They have a freezer full of gluten free donuts and other treats you can take home, plus a lot of bakery items (cookies, cinnamon rolls, etc). My kids thought cinnamon rolls were best things they had eaten in years. We tried to get the donuts they are famous for, but they had sold out by 12:30pm. I highly recommend calling ahead to reserve your donuts. My son has tree nut allergy but bakery items were well labeled so I knew what he could safely eat. They have a few tables in the store if you want to eat there. Strip mall parking lot that can be challenging to access (I turned too early at a light and parking lots didn't connect)

Janice Rios

Excellent service. Gluten free menu. Food was fantastic.

William Iltzsche

This is my fav place to eat and get my coffee when I visit my grandchildren. My grands also love to get snacks and food there plus the younger ones like to read the books, get a game or color. This past winter, Well Grounded, provided a break from sitting in the house. The gluten free options help a lot too since three of them have sensitivity to gluten. The owner does a great job supporting other community businesses and agencies. At Christmas time, she gets books donated and sells items very cheaply. I have been able to buy some of these items the last few years to help some families who don’t have money to get gifts for their children. The free books meant so much to them. The owner is very attentive and it is a wonderful place to sit and relax in.

Emily Crowley

Love the gluten free pancakes!

Rhonda Ladig

Excellent service, caring staff, and loved the high quality ingredients and gluten free options!!

Gordon Londini

This store on Lima Rd is the better of the 2 in town. The dining room is really nice and the food is great. I highly recommend it. The pick 2 is always a great option and the 1/2 salad was huge. They can also swap out the standard bread for gluten free bread!!

Heidi Johnson

They have gluten-free pancakes! What a treat.

Pamela Lengacher

So 5 stars isn’t high enough. This is the best kept secret in the area. The menu is perfection. I love meat and vegetables and fruits so I got all 3 in a wrap that was to die for. My friend is gluten-free, dairy free and vegetarian and she had a salad that was filling and just what she wanted. Once people find this place you won’t go anywhere else. Staff is fabulous and friendly and very helpful. Love love love!

Ruth Martin

Friendly staff, gluten free optoons, excellent food!

Alethea Middleton

Amazing food. Best of all? They have gluten free options!!! The Caprese sandwich (I added bacon) I got is on a GF bun and it was INCREDIBLE. Not only could I not tell it was GF, the ingredients were so fresh! I have a pretty serious intolerance, but don't worry too much about cross contamination. But the waitress said they keep everything seperate and those with severe allergies or Celiac just need to let them know ahead so they can be super careful about cross contamination. I can't wait to go back already!! My kids got the pizza bagels and they smelled amazing. They have gluten-free pizza crust options too. I'm so excited to find this gem because they didn't have GF mentioned on their website or menu that I saw, and I completely expected them to say no when I asked if they had any gluten free sandwiches.

Coffee is very very good. Surprisingly, the food is even better. Far more elevated than you would expect for a coffee shop. Menu is seasonal/rotating dishes that are clearly labeled gluten free and vegan.

Amanda Gorringe

My server was very attentive. The food was great. I had gluten-free pancakes. They were delivered quickly & tasted very good.

Amanda Champion

Always an excellent experience! Gluten free had been safe for us too.

Mike Murphy

The menu options are amazing, they are vegan-friendly, they also offer gluten-free, the proportions are good, in the food is served hot. The restaurant is very organized and clean, restrooms are clean as well. Upon arrival the wait time was about 15 minutes. And this was after church on a Sunday morning. I would highly recommend this restaurant outstanding breakfast selection. The wait staff was very professional and friendly.

Marissa Mattson

Beautiful restaurant, wonderful atmosphere, plenty of seating. Chips served with the salsa are gluten free corn chips, and corn shell tortillas are offered in addition to flour. I am gluten intolerant/celiac and I had no issues with the food making me sick.

Tyler

I believe I have found the best coffee shop in Fort Wayne. I ordered a mocha with pumpkin spice and my girlfriend ordered a snickerdoodle latte. Both were perfectly made. Not to sweet. Not too strong. The milk was steamed well and had the perfect amount of froth. As for breakfast they have a good selection here as well. I got the expertly made bacon egg and cheese Croissant. The croissant was light and flake and tasted amazing. My girlfriend ordered guacamole toast and told me it was the best toast she ever had. FWI they do have gluten free options for the toast. The cherry on top was the staff was very kind and helpful while we ordered. I will be coming here more regularly for sure!

Michael Vorndran

A really pleasant lunch experience. The food was very good, piping hot and exactly as ordered. The waitress was extremely friendly and attentive. The diner was updated and very clean. I will definitely be back to try some of their other options rather than the breakfast I had for lunch. p.s. The breakfast did come with toast, but I'm gluten free so they offered me several options other than bread.

Mary Meyer

This is one of my favorite places. I am gluten and dairy intolerant. They are so good at working with me to find something that works for me. I had the pulled pork sandwich without the bun, their pulled pork is terrific! Our server sat down with us and gave me some other options for the next time. They don't have a gluten free menu but they have options for you.

Lindsay Janelle

I love their salads and gluten free potato soup! So yummy!

Becky Reisinger

Oh boy where do I begin. Floor was sticky, the buffet and nearby floor was covered in food that had fallen off the bowls. There is no way this place would be safe for someone with celiac disease. The cross contamination would make people with gluten issues or allergies very sick. Ordered the fried rice with chicken it came with shrimp in it. Ordered a plain cheese quesadilla it came with peppers and onions. There was no silverware so they gave us take out plasticware. They didn't have enough servers and the ones that were there didn't really know the menu that well. Asked for the manager and it took a long time for her to come to our table. It had been a few years since we had been here. Over all it was a big disappointment. We rarely are able to go out for a sit down family dinner. Fort Wayne has some really amazing places and unfortunately Flat Top doesn't make that list.

Passing Arcturus

Fixed my gluten-free order with no questions and gave me extra protein as a I'm sorry for messing it up I appreciate that a lot you don't see that kind of service from people often in the world and it feels good to have an interaction like that

J Duffey

I go for their iced teas or amazing and they're always pleasant at this location.I'm gluten-free.So I'm always scared to get anything else.But their iced tea is still one of the best

Hayley J

Sometimes the food eith be a little cold and the fries too salty but the people are super nice and usually taste is pretty great! Also love that they have some gluten free options

Micah Barcalow

Smoothie King is a decent option for a healthy meal replacement or just a quick snack on the go. They do have some options for dietary restrictions, including celiac safe options. There are enough flavor options that you could come back numerous times and still not have tried them all.

Philip Clemens-Johnson

Great food, decent prices. Only complaint is that the owner is stubborn about carrying gluten free bread options. Otherwise very consciencious about gluten sensitivity.

Danielle Tomell

They have alternate milk available for lattes, and gluten- free treats. Very nice coffee, searching available inside and outside (weather permitting).
